Jonathan Arata, Ph.D., P.E.
Dr. Jonathan Arata is an online PDH course provider of continuing education for CEDengineering.com.
Dr. Arata is a licensed professional mechanical engineer with over 20 years of experience in employing advanced computational mechanics techniques in the modeling and simulation of highly-dynamic events. He also has over 30 years of experience as a researcher, practitioner, and developer of advanced modeling and simulation methods, particularly finite element analysis (FEA).
Dr. Arata is a highly regarded technical trainer and mentor, having personally guided and taught (1-on-1, through customer support, and in small class settings) over 500 engineers on the use of advanced, complex computational mechanics software to solve their most difficult modeling and simulation challenges. Dr. Arata has delivered dozens of well-received technical presentations on 4-continents.
Dr. Arata was a Part-time/Adjunct faculty member at Tufts University (1st-year graduate class on FEA, 2007-8) and Wentworth Institute of Technology (undergraduate Thermodynamics, Strength of Materials, and College Mathematics, 2002-4). In addition, he holds the following academic degrees:
Ph.D. Engineering (Solid Mechanics) - Brown University
Sc.M. Applied Mathematics - Brown University
M.S. Mechanical Engineering - Univ. of Connecticut
B.E. Mechanical Engineering - Stevens Institute of Technology
